This will be a hard year for alot of people for Christmas. I know we are having a smaller one than usual but I just want everyone to know that you are in alot of peoples prayers. To all those families who’s loved ones are over seas and those who cannot get to your loved ones because of the lack of money and the economy, hang in there hopefully with enough prayer everyone will be safe and taken care of.  I guess alot of people out there will find the true meaning of Christmas this year as they scramble to give as little material things and as much love as they have in their hearts. To all of you out there Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Hang in there god is listening. Stay Safe.  Read more... (145 words, 2 images, estimated 35 secs reading time)

Scrapbooking is slowly making its way into the hearts of many Americans. It is a great way to bring people together, preserve memories, and give a heart-felt gift. custom scrapbooks aren’t hard to find and are generally not very expensive.

We have always been told that it’s the thought that counts, and a scrapbook shows lots of thought and love. Additionally, scrapbooks provide a fun way of looking at the past.

“The roots of education are bitter, but the fruit is sweet.”

How was the day of your little wonder when he went to school for the first time in his life? Shedding tears, screaming to go home, gazing at other tots-imitating them or start getting anxious? An euphoric aura envelops around the enthusiastic parents. Whatever it takes, everyone wants his or her child to be a part of the educated society. But providing education doesn’t include just fetching him admission in a good school. It involves tedious activities, especially when the school starts. Whether your child is going to school for the first time or going back to school from a long summer vacation, he has to be well equipped with the requirements needed at school. Providing kids with best schooling, best requisites and giving him efficient knowledge at home is not cakewalk. The students also take grave pain in completing their primary and high school grades throughout their childhood and tweenhood. However, the result of sincere and competent learning recompenses the efforts and pain taken by the parents and the students in unison.  Read more...

Well I have not felt well lately. I think the continued change in the weather is not helping much. When I feel a little better my girlfriend feels bad , we have both been suffering from allergies, so it’s been hard trying to get over there to scrapbook. Then there’s the weather. It’s been so cold and windy out. I am so glad that they are saying next week will be warmer. I am so ready for Spring. The warm weather, Spring rain, green grass and flowers.  Torrie really loves to go out to play and she is very upset because she has been stuck inside most of the time.  She loves to play out in the backyard with her dog socks and Chrissy. Chrissy is so gentle with her she is part Husky and part Akita. Socks is the little one that mostly looks like a Terrier. They run and chase. She likes to throw sticks and they run and get them only sometimes bringing them back most of the time they chew and break them up. Then she also like to swing andslide on her swing set. So maybe we will both get our wish this weekend. She can go out and play and I can go and scrapbook. You have a good weekend too.  Read more... (217 words, 1 image, estimated 52 secs reading time)
